Question

maricella has a bag containing 35 nickels and quarters. the total cost of these coins is less than $2.50. how many nickels and how many quarters does she have? answer

Answer 1

I think I found the answer... there would be
Nickles:34
Quaters:1

34*5 is 170+25 cents gets you $1.95 wich is less than $2.00 and it works!
By the way i spent 1hr and 30min. on this lol I thought it had to equal up to 2.50 cents then i realized an hour later what my mistake was lol!
